UMY
ANTERIOR ILIOFEMORAL APPROACH:
(SMITH PETERSON APPROACH) Gives safe access to hip & ilLiumINDICATIONS:• Open reduction of congenital dislocations of hip when dislocated
femoral head is anterosup. to the true acetabulum• Synovial biopsies• Intra articular fusions• THR• Hemiarthroplasty• Excision of tumors• Pelvic osteotomies using upper part of approach
UMY
LANDMARKS:ASIS, iliac crest.INCISION:Long incision over anterior half of the iliac crest to the ASIS.
Curve down from ASIS vertically for 8-10cms heaving towards lateral side of patella.
UMY
INTERNERVOUS PLANE:
Superficial plane b/w Sartorius (innervated by femoral N.) & TFL(innervated by Sup.glut.N)
Deep plane lies b/w RF (by femoral N.) & G.medius ( by Sup.glut.N.)
UMY
UMY
Carefully cut through the gap b/t sartorius and TFL about 3” distal to the ASIS.Avoid cutting Lat. cut .N. of thigh, incise deep fascia.
UMY
Retract sartorius upwards & medially; TFL down & laterallyDetach the TFL at iliac origin.Ligate the ascending branch of Lat.circumflex Fem A. in this plane.
UMY
Separating sartorius & TFL exposes 2 muscles the GL. Medius & Rectus femoris.Pass into the plane b/w Rect,F & GL.medius which is lateral to the Femoral.A.Detach and retract the R.F ,expose the capsule of hip jt.
UMY
Adduct & externally rotate the leg to stretch the capsule.Incise the capsule as required ( T/longitudanal)& dislocate the hip by ext.rotation.
UMY
UMY
UMY
DANGERS: NERVES:LFCN. of thigh- may be injured b/w sartorius & TFL.Femoral N. – may be injured if plane is missed during deep dissection as
it lies anterior to hip , medial to RF, lateral to the femoralA. VESSELS: Ascending branch of Lat.Circumflex F.A.- May be injured in the plane
b/t TFL & Sartorius.
ENLARGING THE APPROACH:PROXIMAL EXTENSION- For bone graft harvestingDISTAL EXTENSION- For intraoperative fracture of distal femurIn superficial dissection - by detaching sartorius at the origin.In deep dissection- Stay in plane b/w vastus lateralis & rectus femoris.
UMY
• Reattachment of fascia lata to iliac crest difficult• Osteotomy of overhang of iliac crest is performed
b/w Ext. Oblique medially & fascia lata to as far as origin of g.maximus.
• TFL, G.medius & G.minimus dissected subperiosteally to expose hip joint capsule.
• Closure – Iliac osteotomy fragment reattached with non-absorbable sutures through holes drilled.
SCHAUBEL MODIFICATION OF SP ANTERIOR APPROACH
UMY
• IND-For irreducible congenital dislocation of the hip in a young child.
• TRANSVERSE ‘BIKINI’ INCISION – From anterior inferior and medial to the ASIS and coursing obliquely superiorly and posteriorly to the middle of the iliac crest.
• REFLECTING ABDUCTOR → SARTORIUS & TFL→ REFLECTED HEAD OF RECTUS FEMORIS→ INCISION OF CAPSULE FROM RECTUS ANTERIORLY TO POSTEROSUPERIOUR MARGIN OF JOINT→ OPEN REDUCTION OF DDH
SOMMERVILLE ANTERIOR APPROACH
UMY
UMY
ANTEROLATERAL APPROACH:( WATSON-JONES APPROACH)
• Most commonly used for THR• Releases all abductor mechanism, hence hip can be adducted fully
hence acetabulum is fully exposed.• Abducor mechanism released either by trochanteric osteotomy / by
cutting the ant.part of GL.medius & the whole Gl.minimus off the G.T
INDICATIONS:• THR• ORIF of # NOF• Hemiarthroplasty• Synovial biopsy• Biopsy Femoral N.
UMY
POSITION:• Supine so close to the edge that the buttock of the affected side
hangsover.• Flex the leg upto 30 deg. , adduct it so that leg lies across the
opposite knee.
LANDMARKS:• ASIS • GT• Femoral shaft• V.Lat ridge
UMY
• INCISION:• 8-15cm longitudnal & straight centered over the Tip
of GT.• Incision crosses the post.3rd of the GT before
running down the shaft.
INTERNERVOUS PLANE:• No internervous plane.• Surgical plane is b/w TFL & GL.medius(supplied by
Sup.GT N.)
UMY
UMY
Cut the S.C tissue to reach the fascia over posterior margin of GT & incise fascia lata there to enter the overlying bursa.Divide the fibers of fascia lata proximally & anteriorly in the direction of ASIS, & also distally to expose the vast,lateralis muscle.
UMY
Lift the ant. Flap & detach few fibers of GL.medius to develop a plane b/w TFL & GL.medius.Series of vessels come across the plane act as guide & need to be ligated.
UMY
Retract the GL.med. & mins proximally & laterally to uncover the sup margin of Jt, capsule.
UMY
UMY
UMY
• 1)TROCHANTERIC OSTEOTOMY –ALLOWS COMPLETE MOBILISATION OF G.MEDIUS AND G.MINIMUS
• BASE OF OSTEOTMY IS AT BASE OF VASTUS LATERALIS RIDGE
• 2)PARTIAL DETACHMENT OF ABDUCTOR MECHANISM – A STAY SUTURE IN ANTERIOR PORTION OF G.MEDIUS AND CUTTING THIS PORTION OFF GT
• G.MINIMUS TENDON BELOW IS INCISED
EXPOSURE OF ACETABULUM – NEUTRALISING ABDUCTOR MECHANISM
UMY
UMY
UMYDetach reflected head of Rect.F from Jt. Capsule to expose the ant. rim of acetabulum
UMY
Place Homan retractor over ant lip of acetabulum beneath the RF & psoas as the nervous bundle is anterior to the psoas.Incise the capsule longitudinally.
UMY
• FEMORAL N-Not flexing the hip after dissecting upto anterior rim of acetabulum
Placing retractors into substance of iliopsoas Or overexuberant retraction can damage it..• VESSELS – FEMORAL ARTERY & VEIN – damaged by
acetabular retractors that penetrate iliopsoas substance.
Anterior retractors (R) – 1-o` clock position (L) – 11-o` clock position.
• PROFUNDA FEMORIS ARTERY • FEMORAL SHAFT# - while hip dislocation esp if
inadequate capsular release
DANGERS
UMY
LATERAL APPROACH TO HIP:• Exellent approach to hip replacement.• No need for trochanteric osteotomy.• Early mobilisation of pt possible as the Gl.medius is
preserved.• But not a wider approach as anterolateral approach.POSITION:Supine with GT at the edge of the table.LANDMARKS:ASISG.TShaft of femur
UMY
INCISION:Start about 5cm above the tip of GT pass over centre of tip of GT to extend ~8cm
down the shaft.
UMY
INTERNERVOUS PLANE:No internervous plane as G.M & V.L split in their own line.
UMY
SUPERFICIAL DISSECTION:Cut through the fat & deep fasciaPull the TFL anteriorly,GMposteriorly Detach fibers of GL.medius & develop a plane b/w V.lat & glut.medius.
UMY
DEEP DISSECTION:Split the GL. Medius starting in the middle of GT.Don’t go beyond 3cm up the GT.to preserve sup.GL.N.Split the fibers of V.lats at the base of the GT,
UMY
UMY
Develop ant. flap consisting of ,GL.MED , GL.MIN & V.LDetach muscles from GTContinue disection anteriorly along femoral neck till ant.capsule of hip.Develop space b/w hip capsules & muscles
UMYEnter the capsule using T shaped incision
UMY
UMY
UMY
DANGERS:NERVES:• Sup.GL.N. damage at the upper end of incision
above GT.• Prevented by stay suture in the GL. Med• Femoral N. damaged by inadvertly placed retraction• Prevented by placing retractor strictly on the bone.VESSELS:• Fem. Vessels by retractor
UMY
HARRIS APPROACH
• LATERAL APPROACH FOR EXTENSIVE EXPOSURE OF THE HIP.
• Permits hip dislocation ant & post. But requires GT osteotomy.So risks are Trochanteric non-union, Trochanteric bursitis, Heterotopic ossification
UMY
SOME OTHER MODIFICATIONSMcFarland & Osborne lateral approach• Preserves the integrity of the
gluteus medius muscle.
• Combined mass of g.medius & vastus lateralis with their tendinous junction is elevated & retracted anteriorly.
Hardinge lateral Transgluteal approach• Strong mobile tendon of
gluteus medius is incised obliquely across GT leaving posterior half still attached to GT.
• GT Osteotomy is avoided.
UMY
GIBSON MODIFIED KL incision making it more anterior but still angled.
• Iliotibial band is incised along with its fibres, gluteus medius & minimus are divided at their insertions leaving enough tendon attached so that closure is easy & post-op rehabilitation is rapid
Gibson’s Posterolateral approach
UMY
UMY
Gibson Approach Modified By Marcy and Fletcher
• For insertion of a prosthesis in which the hip is dislocated by internal rotation .
• Anterior part of the joint capsule is preserved to keep the hip from dislocating anteriorly after surgery.
UMY
UMY
MODIFIED GIBSON APPROACH ???Useful alternative forKocher Langenbeckposterior approachto acetabulum.
UMY
C
ADE- KOCHER LANGENBECK INCISIONBDE-GIBSON ORIGINAL SKIN INCISIONCDE- MODIFIED GIBSON APPROACH
UMY
What are the modifications ???• Making vertical skin incision.- More cosmetic in
obese female dec risk of postop “saddlebag” soft tissue deformity.
• Limiting extent of hip joint capsultomy.• Rather G Max splitting, interval between G max &
TFL is developed.So, vascular supply of ant portion of G max is not at risk.
• Better anterosuperior visualization & access.
UMY
POSTERIOR APPROACH:(MOORES APPROACH- SOUTHERN EXPOSURE)
• Most commonly used approach & practical• Easy ,safe, quickINDICATIONS:HemiarthroplastyTHR including revisionORIF of post. Acetabular #Dependent drainage in hip sepsisRemoval loose bodiesPedicle bone graftingOpen reduction of posterior dislocation
UMY
POSITION:True lateral with affected limb above
LANDMARK:GTINCISION:• 10-15cm curved centered on posterior aspect of GT• Begin proximally 6-8cms posterosuperior to posterior aspect of GT • Continue to GT• Curve the incision in line with fibers of G MAX • Continue along shaft of femur.
Incision is identical to Kocher-Langenbeck App, except localized posterior to GT
UMYINTERNERVOUS PLANE: No true plane
UMYCut the fascia lata to expose the V.lat.Superiorly split the fibers of GM(very important) gently.
UMY
Retract GL.maximus & deep fascia to expose posterolateral aspect of hip.Cover by short ext.rotators.Internally rotate the hip to move sciatic N. away from the field.
UMY
Detach piriform & obt.internus retract them posteriorly to protect sciatic nerveIncise the hip jt, capsule , to expose the head & neck of femur.Internally rotate femur for hip dislocation.
UMY
UMY
UMY
DANGERS:Sciatic Nerve-PREVENTION- Extend hip & flex knee to prevent-Gentle retraction & release short ext rotators.VESSELS-Inferior Gluteal A- Leaves below piriformisFemoral vessels
UMY
MEDIAL APPROACH(LUDOLFFS APPROACH)
INDICATIONS:• Open reduction of congenital dislocation of hip.• Biopsy & RX of tumors of the inf.portion of femoral
neck & medial aspect of proximal shaft.• Psoas release• Obturator neurectomy.• By making short transverse/longitudinal incision-
used for adductor release
UMY
POSITION:Supine with affected hip flexed , abducted & externally rotated.Sole of foot lies along the medial side of opp. Knee.LANDMARKS:Adductor longus traced to its originPubic tubercleGT
UMY
INCISION:Longitudinal incision on the medial thigh starting 3cm below
pubic tubercle that runs down over adductor longusLength depends on amount of femur to be exposed
UMY
INTERNERVOUS PLANE:Superficial dissection b/w adductor.longus & gracialis-BOTH ANT DIVISON OF OBTURATOR NERVEDoesn’t involve Int.N.plane
UMYSUPERFICIAL DISSECTION:B/w adductor longus & gracialis
UMY
B/w adductor brevis & magnus till lesser trochanterProtect post.division of obt.N. to preserve innervation of adductor portion of Ad.magnus.
UMY
UMY
DANGERS:NERVES:Ant,div of obt.N- which lies at the top of the obt.externus
running b/w add.longus & brevis.Post.div of obt.N. lies with in the obt,externus which it
supplies before it leaves the pelvis.Runs down the thigh on adductor magnus under the
brevis,it also supplies adductor portion of adductor magnus.
These nerves are transected if approach is meant for adductor spasm or else protect them.
VESSELS:Medial femoral circum flex A.-may be injured at distal part
of psoas.

QUESTION?????
• Which of the following approaches for total hip arthroplasty is reported to have the lowest prosthetic dislocation rate?
• 1. Posterior approach with posterior soft tissue repair• 2. Anterolateral (Watson Jones)• 3. Direct lateral (Hardinge)• 4. Transtrochanteric• 5. Posterior approach without posterior soft tissue
repair
UMY
Ans--LATERAL APPROACH
• The metanalysis by Masonis and Bourne found a dislocation rate for 14 studies involving 13000 total hips-
• 1.27% for the transtrochanteric approach, 3.23% for the posterior approach (3.95% without posterior repair and 2.03% with posterior repair),
• 2.18% for the anterolateral approach, • 0.55% for the direct lateral approach.
